Emile Smith Rowe is on the verge of joining RB Leipzig on loan (Getty Images)Arsenal youngster Emile Smith Rowe looks to become the latest English teenager to move to the Bundesliga by joining RB Leipzig on loan until the end of the season, according to the Independent.
Terms have been agreed between both clubs for the 18-year-old and he will complete the move before the transfer deadline so long as he passes a medical.
The 18-year-old is regarded as one of Arsenal’s brightest young talents and has broken into the first-team squad this season, making six appearances in all competitions and scoring three goals.
However, with competition in Arsenal’s midfield fierce, Unai Emery is happy to let him join Leipzig on a temporary basis with the Bundesliga side giving Arsenal assurances that he will play.
Once the deal has been completed, Smith Rowe will become the second Arsenal player to join a Bundesliga club on loan this season, following Reiss Nelson’s move to Hoffenheim in August.
